they were kind of like in the soul II soul mold, but better. they had some killa killa songs




Formed in 1982 by Jane Eugene, Steve Nichol and Carl McIntosh, Loose End (as they were originally known) were the first all-black British band to be signed to the Virgin Records label. After several unsuccessful singles they changed their name to Loose Ends, enlisted producer Nick Martinelli, and started to make an impression on the soul/dance scene with a series of excellent releases. Their major breakthrough came with the Top 20 singles "Hangin' On A String (Contemplating)" and "Magic Touch", and their second album So Where Are You, featuring backing vocals by American singer Joanna Gardner. Subsequent singles and albums were not as successful, but they developed a busy sideline as songwriters and producers (Juliet Roberts, Five Star, Lavine Hudson). Following the disbandment of the original line-up, McIntosh returned in 1990 with new members Linda Carriere and Sunay Suleyman, breaking into the Top 20 with "Don't Be A Fool".

Mr Bachelor, you should have told me, Mr Bachelor, you kow you owe me!

I Like The Real Ckuckeeboo and A Little Spice, but Zagora is my favorite album from them.

And I did like "Don't Be Fool". It was a nice comeback, but I didn't buy that album.

I remember diggin a couple of their videos back in the day. Mr. Bachelor was the jam.
It's kinda like The Family Stand, who I love, what happened to them? We need to start a Family Stand appreciation thread. Though I'm sure, or hope, someone already has.
